Answer:

In the excerpt from "The Four Hundred Year Old Woman", by Bharati Mukherjee, the implied meaning that the author is trying to convey in the allusion "all too real Manhattan" is the lively and bustling city. The author is implying that after the many countries in which she has been, she finally feels at home in America. The phantom of the city of her birth Faridpur, and Manhattan have merged, and she feels at home.

Answer:

1. The old couch springs moaned as the rather large man sat down on it.

Personification. It personifies the 'couch' as a human, 'moaning' when the large man sat on it.

2. The hot sauce burned like fire when I bit into the taco.

Simile. Compares the hot sauce to a fire using 'like'.

3. I am so tired, yet I still have a million things to do before bed.

Hyperbole. Uses an exaggerated expression to describe the things to be done.

4. You can't find your book because your room is a pigpen. Please clean it.

Metaphor. Comparison between the speaker's room to a pig pen without using the words "like" or "as".

5. The piece of chocolate cake taunted me each time I went to the kitchen.

Personification. Personifies the cake to a human, 'taunting' the speaker.

6. The neglected little kitten was as light as a feather from having no food.

Simile. A comparison made between the kitten and a feather using the word "as".

Explanation:

Similes and metaphors are two ways comparisons are made. The only difference is that similes use "like" and "as" to compare while metaphors do not use the two comparison words.

Hyperbole is when the description is given using too much emphasis, way beyond what it really is. The description is done with exaggeration.

Personification is when non-living ideas or things are given human attributes, characteristics, etc.

Read the sample sentence, and then answer the questions. Sequoia and charles plans to exercise together. What two elements in th

kipiarov [429]

Subject and Verb do not agree. Sequoia and Charles plan to exercise together.

The subject of this sentence is a compound subject (Sequoia and Charles). A compound subject is a plural subject because it has more than one. The verb "plans" agrees with a singular subject because it ends with /s/. In order to make the subject and verb agree, the /s/ at the end of "plans" needs to be eliminated. The revised sentence should be "Sequoia and Charles plan to exercise together."

Vsevolod [243]

Simple. I assume the ones going to the middle school are currently in 5th grade at the elementary school. You have 126 coming into the middle school from each school. You need to multiply 126 by 4. You get 504. There will be 504 new students at the middle school.
